Attorney At Law Roysdale Alton Forde has been installed as Grandmaster of the District Grand Lodge of Guyana, an integral part of the century-odd Freemasonry fraternity. His preferment is also attended by the title of Grand Superintendent in and over Guyana.
Brother Forde’s accession to this high office was attended by fulsome expressions of congratulations from a wide cross section of prominent personages and institutions including His Excellency David A. Granger, President of the Cooperative Republic of Guyana, the United Grand Lodge of England, the District Grand Lodge of Jamaica and the Cayman Islands and the District Grand Lodge of Bahamas and Turks.
Brother Forde comes to this distinguished office in the Freemasonry at what is a relatively tender age, a reality embodied in a sentiment expressed by His Excellency The President of Guyana who pointed out in his congratulatory message that “the mantle of leadership of the District Grand Lodge of Guyana is about to be passed on to a new generation.”
